Organizers:

Matus Telgarsky (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign; chair), Moritz Hardt (UC Berkeley), Sergey Levine (UC Berkeley), Aleksander Mądry (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Ohad Shamir (Weizmann Institute)

This final workshop will serve two purposes. On one hand, it will survey some of the new, emerging challenges in deep learning: For example, interpretability and verification, failure areas, reinforcement learning, and societal concerns broadly defined (including fairness and privacy). On the other hand, this event will constitute a "capstone” of the program, aiming to support ongoing collaborations between program participants and industry visitors with an intent of sustaining their continuation beyond the program.
